{my thoughts} - This is the first three books to the Night World series. The first book had me at the introduction. I fell in love with the characters and enjoyed the storyline.

Secret Vampire

Poppy is a young girl that is dying. She has no choice but to accept her fate. She has a close friend named James that visits her on a normal basis. He tells her that he can help her to keep living but there is a price. She had a hard choice to make, but in the end she decides it’s in her best interest.

She is a strong individual. She knows what she wants and she wants to live. She doesn’t want her life to end a such a young age. She has the desire to become more and do more with her life. I can relate. I understand what that is like. All and all she is a sweet girl and I enjoyed reading about her and James.

Daughters of Darkness

This book is centered around the lives of three vampire sisters. They don’t like their life so they run away to live with their aunt. When they get to her house they come to discover that she is dead. Their brother shows up and it comes to light that now it is up to them to find out what happened to their aunt and why. While they are trying to sort all this out they are attacked by a werewolf and they are forced to put and end to him.

This book is fast paced and intriguing. I enjoyed learning about the new characters while still learning about some from previous books. It was laid out nicely and made for a really good read in my honest opinion.

Spellbinder

This book is centered around two witches. They are cousins but like sisters. Because of that they get along about as good as a couple of sisters do. In the end though they are able to pull themselves together enough to help each other in a means of protecting the other from harm and danger. In other words they learn to look our for each other despite the jealous like behaviors they each display.



{reason for reading} - I had bought it at wal-mart for something new to read. ( )

I am not really sure what I can say about this book containing 3 stories.
Smith's way to write definitely caught me, but I think the stories could had a bit more exciting. It's was a nice pasttime to read the book.
And I will read the following stories. ( )

The first two stories in this book are my favorite in the series. I read these books years ago when they first came out and was delighted to see that they are now available in book and audio form. ( )

finally finished this, and I don't know why I waited so long to read it, or to pick it back up. I'm glad I finally did and I won't take two years to read the other two now :) ( )
